There's a pretty broad spetcrum of Dad behavior, like this wholesome dad who freak out when he lost his daughter's hamster or this dad who upset his vegan daughter with his bacon cooking. You want to make decisions with your kids best interest at heart, and this dad saw that as kicking the "cool girl" out of his daughter's party for some rude behavior.

At the very least we're dealing with a situation of clear miscommunication, or refusal from this guy to listen to his fiancé. It sounds like she couldn't have been more clear about not wanting a Peloton bike for her birthday. But alas, there it was come the big day. The tense silence must've been overwhelmingly awkward. Maybe she'll capitalize on the misfortune, and decide to vlog some of it after all.
Sure, it's the thought that counts, but sometimes all your great aunt can think of is a way to get rid of all her old mousetraps. Some gifts are strange but heartfelt, some are an excuse to re-gift some crap, some are a huge burden from an estranged family member. People get a lot of strange, inappropriate and WTF gifts.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. And when life gives you a card that says "happy birthday," throw a "Jesus" on there to make it about Christmas. Whether it was grandmas with extra cards, or people who just couldn't find a "hope your deviated scrotum heals" card, here's people making do. Sometimes people's wordsmithing doesn't work out as well as this in the case of really not good signs and designs.
This choosing beggar expected a nice 50% off birthday discount. She was hoping to get the $20 purse half off, and the artist had other plans. Specifically, they clapped back with adding the discount back on, so that the item was at its original price. And you know why? Cause it was "their birthday" too! A job well done, if we do say so ourselves.

This backflip attempt left more than his spidey sense tingling. Aside from the physical pain, that has gotta be embarrassing after the fact. I guess the lesson is only do backflips if you're 100% confident in yourself. This guy looks like he saw Uncle Ben for a second.

As we all know, certain restaurant chains will give you a free meal if it's your birthday. This dude upped the ante by visiting as many places as he could. The results are...here.
This is a real TIFU story, although I don't know if she can entirely blame it on being tired. I've been sleep deprived many times in my life and I never had the urge to do what she did. You'd think that any older sibling might know a thing or two about letting your impulsive bullsh*t-ridden behavior get in the way of NOT being a sh*tty person, especially on your younger sister's birthday. She was but a "drop in the ocean of stupidity." But we all f*ck up, right?
Lying is a very common aspect of human relationships, but too big of a lie can really become a burden. Here's to hoping that your SO's web of lies is all for something as small as making banana bread or using the wrong towel. Some of these people have some serious secrets that could have big impacts if they got out.
